If you can boot up with an earlier kernel that worked you'll have to edit either grub.conf or lilo.conf, depending on what bootloader you are using
/etc/lilo.conf is pretty simple, open up that file and where it says append, just add nomce, if it doesn't say append, near the top put;
append "nomce"
in grub where I believe it's setup like this:
label
kernel "kerenl-xxx root=/dev/hdxx nomce"
but I"m not entirely sure, and that file is located /boot/grub/grub.conf
now if you cant but up to an older kernel, what you'll want to do is grab a rescue disc, or just some install disk (slackware and gentoo I think work the best, although suse will actually boot up the linux from your hd with a default kernel I think?)
basically what you'll want to do is mount the partition which the file is on, and edit it with a text editor (joe, nano, vi)
I don't know vi, but I know joe, and ctrl+K+d is save, and ctrl+c is exit. nano is easy.
then just reboot and it should work
